What is CSESoc?

CSESoc is the constituent society for all students who study Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Bioinformatics Engineering and Masters of IT.

Some of the work we do to support CSE students are:

• Social events to help you meet people and make new friends
• Study sessions and workshops, when you’re on that COMP1511 grind
• Competitions and project development to up-skill yourself
• Career events to help you network and get a job you value
• Creative content to inspire, educate and entertain
• And so much more!

Where can we stay up to date with all of these events and opportunities? Like our Facebook page, follow our Instagram and join our Facebook Group and Discord Server.

The CSESoc Team

The CSESoc Team has three focuses – Internals, Externals and Technical – which are led by the elected Executive Team. These focuses are further divided into 12 different portfolios which are led by a wonderful team of Directors.

Also remember those browser games like run 3 and diep.io everyone used to play at school? Suddenly I want to play them again :0
